Purpur Stairs are a stair block crafted from Purpur Blocks or Purpur Pillars. They can be placed facing different directions, and they can hold water when waterlogged.

Players mine Purpur Stairs with a pickaxe, and the block drops itself when broken. They are used to build sloped steps, edges, and other shaped parts of Purpur structures.
